Multi-faceted Timmy's

To begin with, i grew up in Cochrane,Ontario and our community's arena is named after the hockey legend. Naturally, over the years, i've enjoyed Timmy's java for numerous reasons; catching up with old friends, staying alert on long treks, rendez-vous with my hubby; wonderful opportunity to socialize and sometimes,giving the time of day to a stranger can bring a smile to their face. Buy them a "smile" cookie when available and see what happens. To this day, it still amazes me how people will line up through the drive-through stretching a mile long waiting for their Timmy's; guess it's one of those little Canadian pleasures that makes us appreciate what we have and who we are.
